At Lancaster some months ago Miss
Ellen White sued Walter Galloway for
breach of promise and obtained in the
circuit court judgment for $1,000
damages. Later on, the sheriff levied
upon thirty-one pigs, some growing
grass, and other property, to satisfy
the judgment. The sheriff did not
take immediate possession of the prop
erty, but left it on the place to mature,
and when the property was wanted it
could not be found. Miss White then
brought suit against Galloway for con-
vertfng her property to his own USE
A justice court listened to the case for
nearly week and brought verdict
in favor of the plaintiff, and a Judge
ment was rendered in her favor for
$2450
